Ravenswood Road, London, E17

The house itself has been carefully restored, managed and refurbished, with old period features being brought back to life. The entrance hallway leads into a bright living room complete with high ceilings, a fireplace and shutters, and accompanied by a dining area. This continues into the lovingly refurbished kitchen and further living space, with bi-fold doors leading out to the garden; creating a perfect space for family time or entertaining. The first floor has the main bathroom, three bedrooms including the master room at the front of the house, again complete with shutters, and a loft room; an excellent space as a study or further sleeping area. Ravenswood Road is literally around the corner from Orford Road, which has now become the most desirable location in Walthamstow. The village is pedestrianised from 10am to 10pm and is lined with small businesses, pubs, restaurants and cafes making for the perfect neighbourhood village. Transport links are excellent, with Walthamstow Central Station taking you into the West End (19 minutes) and City (26 minutes) via the Victoria Line and Overground, as well as Wood Street Station. Note from the owner; 'Our house has been our sanctuary for over eight years and where we’ve raised our young son. We especially love hanging out in our spacious, open-plan kitchen - the heart of our home. Mornings are particularly lovely as the light floods in through the bifold doors and the sun warms up the space, making lazy weekend breakfasts a treat. We’ve hosted many happy gatherings with family, friends and neighbours here. The location is hard to beat for convenience and charm; Orford Road’s shops and restaurants are a short stroll away and you’re only ever 10 minutes from a pub! Heading out, we love a huge breakfast at Urban Bites, cocktails at Bargo, dinner at Eat17, and sinking a pint or two at The Lord Raglan with the football on. Being so close to schools and entertainment is a blessing when juggling a busy work-family-home life. The transport links are great; we’re within walking distance from Walthamstow Central overground and tube and 20 minutes to the City. Being close to Hollow Ponds allows you to escape the urban bustle if you fancy a muddy forest walk. Ravenswood Road is a wonderful community; there are street parties every summer, organised through an active, supportive and cheery WhatsApp residents’ group and our immediate neighbours - including the MOT Garage - are so friendly and lovely, too. Now is the time for us to say goodbye and explore new areas. We take with us fond memories of Ravenswood Road, the friends we’ve met and the memories we’ve made, which we’ll never forget.'
